OVERVIEW
Zen shiatsu is a deeply effective Japanese healing therapy. This diagnostic system utilises the same meridian & acupressure point system as acupuncture.
Shiatsu translates as ‘finger pressure’ although the Shiatsu practitioner will use thumbs, Fingers, palms, elbows, knees & feet to apply their own body weight to stimulate the patients flow of energy in their body.
A combination of acupressure massage, wholefood dietary advice, Ki Yoga correctives & moxabustion
is utilized in the treatment & diagnosis. The patient lies on a futon mattress fully clothed during
the treatment.
In Zen Shiatsu the whole being is treated not just the presenting symptom – this aids the practitioner to balance the strengths & weaknesses which present themselves such as aches and pains, digestive or hormonal issues, sleeping or breathing difficulties as well as a wide range of emotional & mental issues.
Zen Shiatsu promotes the flow of Ki (life force) through the entire being.
